Prep Time
15 mins
Ingredients
Base:
- 1 large apple
Chocolate coating:
- ⅔ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ teaspoon coconut oil
Caramel glaze:
- 1 tsp coconut oil, melted
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Liposomal Magnesium
Topping:
- Shredded coconut
- Pinch of sea salt
Directions
- In a double broiler, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil to make the chocolate coating.
- With a sharp knife, slice apple sideways into about seven half-inch-thick rings. Remove the core by cutting a small hole in the centre of each ring to make a “donut.”
- Dip each apple ring into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat both sides. Place on parchment-lined tray.
- Once all apples have been coated, refrigerate apple rings till the chocolate has set.
- In a small bowl, combine Liposomal Magnesium with the vanilla and melted coconut oil to make the caramel glaze.
- Remove the chocolate-coated apple slices from the refrigerator, and using a spoon, drizzle the chocolate caramel glaze over each apple slice. Sprinkle shredded coconut and sea salt over caramel glaze to garnish.
- Refrigerate apple donuts for a few hours until the glaze hardens. Enjoy!
